  • BIO 314: Pharmacology

    3.00 Credits
    Drexel University

    In this course, students will apply their studies of chemistry and biology to understand how drugs: are designed, affect the body, and are affected by the body. Students can expect to learn the fundamentals of pharmacology, and to discuss current topics and novel approaches being used to design new therapeutics. Prerequisite:    BIO 218 [Min Grade: D]
